Nice Watch Admin!!!

While personally not my cup of tea (I am partial to the Doxa Deco) it is still a very rugged and tough looking watch. The bracelet looks comfortable to wear, but the oversized case is what I am curious about. Any discomfort while moving/ flexing your wrist with it on?

I know this watch has deep roots in the diving community, and for good reason!! Enjoy it!!

Too weird for me. The lines and case design just don't fit IMHO. But seems like it can take a beating or two!!!

I might have been a lil harsh in my comment earlier, I think MarkJnk probably has a point about them being difficult to photograph. I have never seen one in person, only in print ads and online pics, and looking at these pics I think the Admin should apply as Doxa's official photographer, since these are the best doxa pics I have seen thus far!

I'd still never buy one even if I ever get a job as a deep sea diver the watch of my choice would be a Bell & Ross.

Hey Admin are the links screw or pin-links on your Doxa?


Links are screw in.

I actually never noticed that the 5000 series has that bracelet that I prefer! The size at 44mm is just perfect for me for this one.. I would love to get the bracelet from a 5000 on it. Don't think that's going to happen though as they dont seem to sell the bracelet separately and I'm not sure if it would fit.

The watch has a uniqueness to it.. reminds me of a Spyderco Knife.. ugly but charming at the same time.. like a JLC Reverso perhaps.
